They also understand the difference—and this is very important—of un-taxing unrealized capital gains. That I can assure you was a lightning bolt through that constituency. Every small investor in these people, this is what I do: I'm an advocate for small business in America. That freaked them out.

They thought that was un-American. They thought that wasn't really the American dream—to have the government take money from you before you've realized anything. It was a real shocker. You may remember, including she put proxies out there and advocates to try and pull that back in, you know, saying, "Look, I'll never do that. Congress will never pass that."

But that really affected the psyche of the American small business family, and it cost her a lot.
